Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula 1 and methods for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound or a composition of the invention.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to certain pyrimidinium compounds, their N-oxides, salts and their compositions suitable for agronomic, nonagronomic and animal health uses, methods of their use for controlling invertebrate pests such as arthropods in both agronomic and nonagronomic environments, and for treatment of parasite infections in animals or infestations in the general environment.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The control of invertebrate pests is extremely important in achieving high crop efficiency. Damage by invertebrate pests to growing and stored agronomic crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer. The control of invertebrate pests in forestry, greenhouse crops, ornamentals, nursery crops, stored food and fiber products, livestock, household, turf, wood products, and public health is also important. Many products are commercially available for these purposes, but the need continues for new compounds that are more effective, less costly, less toxic, environmentally safer or have different sites of action.

The control of animal parasites in animal health is essential, especially in the areas of food production and companion animals. Existing methods of treatment and parasite control are being compromised due to growing resistance to many current commercial parasiticides. The discovery of more effective ways to control animal parasites is therefore imperative.

DETAILS OF THE INVENTION

As used herein, the terms “comprises”, “comprising”, “includes”, “including”, “has”, “having”, “contains”, “containing”, “characterized by” or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, subject to any limitation explicitly indicated. For example, a composition, mixture, process or method that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, mixture, process or method.

The transitional phrase “consisting of” excludes any element, step or ingredient not specified. If in the claim, such would close the claim to the inclusion of materials other than those recited except for impurities ordinarily associated therewith. When the phrase “consisting of” appears in a clause of the body of a claim, rather than immediately following the preamble, it limits only the element set forth in that clause; other elements are not excluded from the claim as a whole.

The transitional phrase “consisting essentially of” is used to define a composition or method that includes materials, steps, features, components or elements, in addition to those literally disclosed, provided that these additional materials, steps, features, components or elements do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristic(s) of the claimed invention. The term “consisting essentially of” occupies a middle ground between “comprising” and “consisting of”.

Where applicants have defined an invention or a portion thereof with an open-ended term such as “comprising”, it should be readily understood that (unless otherwise stated) the description should be interpreted to also describe such an invention using the terms “consisting essentially of” or “consisting of”.

Further, unless expressly stated to the contrary, “or” refers to an inclusive or and not to an exclusive or. For example, a condition A or B is satisfied by any one of the following: A is true (or present) and B is false (or not present), A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present), and both A and B are true (or present).

Also, the indefinite articles “a” and “an” preceding an element or component of the invention are intended to be nonrestrictive regarding the number of instances (i.e. occurrences) of the element or component. Therefore “a” or “an” should be read to include one or at least one, and the singular word form of the element or component also includes the plural unless the number is obviously meant to be singular.

As referred to in this disclosure, the term “invertebrate pest” includes arthropods, gastropods and nematodes of economic importance as pests. The term “arthropod” includes insects, mites, spiders, scorpions, centipedes, millipedes, pill bugs and symphylans. The term “gastropod” includes snails, slugs and other Stylommatophora. The term “nematode” refers to a living organism of the Phylum Nematoda. The term “helminths” includes roundworms, heartworms, phytophagous nematodes (Nematoda), flukes (Tematoda), Acanthocephala and tapeworms (Cestoda).

In the context of this disclosure “invertebrate pest control” means inhibition of invertebrate pest development (including mortality, feeding reduction, and/or mating disruption), and related expressions are defined analogously.

The term “agronomic” refers to the production of field crops such as for food and fiber and includes the growth of corn, soybeans and other legumes, rice, cereal (e.g., wheat, oats, barley, rye, rice, maize), leafy vegetables (e.g., lettuce, cabbage, and other cole crops), fruiting vegetables (e.g., tomatoes, pepper, eggplant, crucifers and cucurbits), potatoes, sweet potatoes, grapes, cotton, tree fruits (e.g., pome, stone and citrus), small fruit (berries, cherries) and other specialty crops (e.g., canola, sunflower, olives).

The term “nonagronomic” refers to other than field crops, such as horticultural crops (e.g., greenhouse, nursery or ornamental plants not grown in a field), residential, agricultural, commercial and industrial structures, turf (e.g., sod farm, pasture, golf course, lawn, sports field, etc.), wood products, stored product, agro-forestry and vegetation management, public health (i.e. human) and animal health (e.g., domesticated animals such as pets, livestock and poultry, undomesticated animals such as wildlife) applications.

Nonagronomic applications include protecting an animal from an invertebrate parasitic pest by administering a parasiticidally effective (i.e. biologically effective) amount of a compound of the invention, typically in the form of a composition formulated for veterinary use, to the animal to be protected. As referred to in the present disclosure and claims, the terms “parasiticidal” and “parasiticidally” refers to observable effects on an invertebrate parasite pest to provide protection of an animal from the pest. Parasiticidal effects typically relate to diminishing the occurrence or activity of the target invertebrate parasitic pest. Such effects on the pest include necrosis, death, retarded growth, diminished mobility or lessened ability to remain on or in the host animal, reduced feeding and inhibition of reproduction. These effects on invertebrate parasite pests provide control (including prevention, reduction or elimination) of parasitic infestation or infection of the animal.

“CHO” means formyl, “OCN” means —O—C≡N, and “SCN” means —S—C≡N.

When A is C(R^(3c))═C(R^(3d)), the C(R^(3c))═C(R^(3d)) moiety is oriented so the carbon atom bonded to R^(3d) is connected directly to the pyrimidinium ring of Formula 1 as shown below.

The total number of carbon atoms in a substituent group is indicated by the “C_(i)-C_(j)” prefix where i and j are numbers from 1 to 14. For example, C₁-C₄ alkyl designates methyl through butyl; C₂ alkoxyalkyl designates CH₂OCH₃; C₃ alkoxyalkyl designates, for example, CH₃CH(OCH₃), CH₂CH₂OCH₃ or CH₂OCH₂CH₃; and C₄ alkoxyalkyl designates the various isomers of an alkyl group substituted with an alkoxy group containing a total of four carbon atoms, examples including CH₂OCH₂CH₂CH₃ and CH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₃.

When a group contains a substituent which can be hydrogen, for example R^(3a), then when this substituent is taken as hydrogen, it is recognized that this is equivalent to said group being unsubstituted. When a variable group is shown to be optionally attached to a position, for example (R^(v))_(r) in U-36 of Exhibit 1 wherein r may be 0, then hydrogen can be at the position even if not recited in the variable group definition. When one or more positions on a group are said to be “not substituted” or “unsubstituted”, then hydrogen atoms are attached to take up any free valency.

Unless otherwise indicated, a “ring” or “ring system” as a component of Formula 1 is carbocyclic or heterocyclic. The term “ring system” denotes two or more connected rings. The term “bicyclic ring system” denotes a ring system consisting of two rings sharing two or more common atoms.

A ring or a bicyclic ring system can be part of an extended ring system containing more than two rings wherein substituents on the ring or bicyclic ring system are taken together to form the additional rings, which may be in bicyclic relationships with other rings in the extended ring system.

The term “ring member” refers to an atom (e.g., C, O, N or S) or other moiety (e.g., C(═O), C(═S) or S(═O)_(u)(═NR²⁴)_(z)) forming the backbone of a ring or ring system. The term “aromatic” indicates that each of the ring atoms is essentially in the same plane and has a p-orbital perpendicular to the ring plane, and that (4n+2)π electrons, where n is a positive integer, are associated with the ring or ring system to comply with Hückel's rule.

“Partially saturated” and “partially unsaturated” with reference to a ring or ring system means that the ring or ring system contains at least one double bond but the ring or ring system is not aromatic. A ring system is aromatic if at least one component ring is aromatic.

The term “carbocyclic ring” denotes a ring wherein the atoms forming the ring backbone are selected only from carbon. Unless otherwise indicated, a carbocyclic ring can be a saturated, partially unsaturated, or fully unsaturated ring. When a fully unsaturated carbocyclic ring satisfies Hückel's rule, then said ring is also called an “aromatic ring”. “Saturated carbocyclic ring” refers to a ring having a backbone consisting of carbon atoms linked to one another by single bonds; unless otherwise specified, the remaining carbon valences are occupied by hydrogen atoms.

The terms “heterocyclic ring” or “heterocycle” denotes a ring wherein at least one of the atoms forming the ring backbone is other than carbon. Unless otherwise indicated, a heterocyclic ring can be a saturated, partially unsaturated, or fully unsaturated ring. “Saturated heterocyclic ring” refers to a heterocyclic ring containing only single bonds between ring members. “Partially saturated heterocyclic ring” refers a heterocyclic ring containing at least one double bond but which is not aromatic. The term “heteroaromatic ring” denotes a fully unsaturated aromatic ring in which at least one atom forming the ring backbone is not carbon. Typically a heteroaromatic ring contains no more than 4 nitrogens, no more than 1 oxygen and no more than 1 sulfur. Unless otherwise indicated, heteroaromatic rings can be attached through any available carbon or nitrogen by replacement of a hydrogen on said carbon or nitrogen. The term “heteroaromatic bicyclic ring system” denotes a ring system consisting of two fused rings, in which at least one of the two rings is a heteroaromatic ring as defined above.

When a radical (e.g., a 3- to 10-membered ring in the definition of R¹) is optionally substituted with listed substituents with the number of substituents stated (e.g., “up to 5”), then the radical may be unsubstituted or substituted with a number of substituents ranging up to the high number stated (e.g., “5”), and the attached substituents are independently selected from the substituents listed.

When a substituent (e.g., R¹) is a ring or ring system, it can be attached to the remainder of Formula 1 through any available ring member, unless otherwise described.

As noted above, R¹ is, inter alia, a 3- to 10-membered ring or a 7- to 11-membered ring system, each ring or ring system containing ring members selected from carbon atoms and up to 4 heteroatoms independently selected from up to 2 O, up to 2 S, and up to 4 N, wherein up to 3 carbon atom ring members are independently selected from C(═O) and C(═S) and the sulfur atom ring members are independently selected from S(═O)_(u)(═NR²⁴)_(z), each ring or ring system optionally substituted with up to 5 substituents independently selected from R¹⁴. In this definition the ring members selected from up to 2 O, up to 2 S and up to 4 N are optional, because the number of heteroatom ring members may be zero. When no heteroatom ring members are present, the ring or ring system is carbocyclic. If at least one heteroatom ring member is present, the ring or ring system is heterocyclic. The definition of S(═O)_(u)(═NR²⁴)_(z) allows up to 2 sulfur ring members, which can be oxidized sulfur moieties (e.g., S(═O) or S(═O)₂) or unoxidized sulfur atoms (i.e. when u and z are both zero). The nitrogen atom ring members may be oxidized as N-oxides, because compounds relating to Formula 1 also include N-oxide derivatives. The up to 3 carbon atom ring members selected from C(═O) and C(═S) are in addition to the up to 4 heteroatoms selected from up to 2 O, up to 2 S and up to 4 N atoms. As the R¹⁴ substituents are optional, 0 to 5 substituents may be present, limited only by the number of available points of attachment.

The term “unsubstituted” in connection with a group such as a ring or ring system means the group does not have any substituents other than its one or more attachments to the remainder of Formula 1. The term “optionally substituted” means that the number of substituents can be zero. Unless otherwise indicated, optionally substituted groups may be substituted with as many optional substituents as can be accommodated by replacing a hydrogen atom with a non-hydrogen substituent on any available carbon or nitrogen atom. Commonly, the number of optional substituents (when present) ranges from 1 to 3.

The number of optional substituents may be restricted by an expressed limitation. For example, the phrase “optionally substituted with up to 5 substituents independently selected from R¹⁵” means that 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 substituents can be present (if the number of potential connection points allows). When a range specified for the number of substituents exceeds the number of positions available for substituents on a ring, the actual higher end of the range is recognized to be the number of available positions.

When the number of optional substituents is not restricted by an expressed limitation (e.g., the phrases “optionally substituted with halogen” or “unsubstituted or substituted with at least one substituent independently selected from”), it is understood to mean that the number of optional substituents can range from 0 up to the number of positions available. One skilled in the art will appreciate that while some substituents such as halogen can be present at every available position (for example, the C₂F₅ substituent is a C₂ alkyl group substituted with the maximum number of 5 fluorine atoms), practical factors such as cost and synthetic accessibility can limit the number of occurences of other substituents. These limitations are part of the general synthetic knowledge known to those skilled in the art. Of note are embodiments wherein in the absence of expressed limitation of number of optional substituents, the number of optional substituents is up to 3 (i.e. 0, 1, 2 or 3) if accommodated by the number of available positions.

As noted above, substituents such as R¹ can be (among others) a 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring, optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from a group of substituents as defined in the Summary of Invention. Examples of a 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring optionally substituted with one or more substituents include the rings U-2 through U-61 illustrated in Exhibit 1 wherein R^(v) is any substituent as defined in the Summary of the Invention (e.g., for R¹) and r is an integer from 0 to 5, limited by the number of available positions on each U group. As U-29, U-30, U-36, U-37, U-38, U-39, U-40, U-41, U-42 and U-43 have only one available position, for these U groups r is limited to the integers 0 or 1, and r being 0 means that the U group is unsubstituted and a hydrogen is present at the position indicated by (R^(v))_(r).

As noted above, substituents such as R¹ can be (among others) an 8-, 9- or 10-membered heteroaromatic bicyclic ring system optionally substituted with up to 5 substituents selected from a group of substituents as defined in the Summary of Invention. Examples of an 8-, 9- or 10-membered heteroaromatic bicyclic ring system optionally substituted with up to 5 substituents include the ring systems H-1 through H-23 illustrated in Exhibit 2 wherein R^(v) is any substituent as defined in the Summary of the Invention (e.g., for R¹) and r is an integer from 0 to 5, limited by the number of available positions on each H group.

Although R^(v) groups are shown in the structures U-1 through U-61 and H-1 through H-23, it is noted that they do not need to be present since they are optional substituents. The nitrogen atoms that require substitution to fill their valence are substituted with H or R^(v). Note that when the attachment point between (R^(v))_(r) and the U or H group is illustrated as floating, (R^(v))_(r) can be attached to any available carbon atom or nitrogen atom of the U or H group. Note that when the attachment point on the U or H group is illustrated as floating, the U or H group can be attached to the remainder of Formula 1 through any available carbon or nitrogen of the U or H group by replacement of a hydrogen atom.

A wide variety of synthetic methods are known in the art to enable preparation of aromatic and nonaromatic heterocyclic rings and ring systems; for extensive reviews see the eight volume set of Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, A. R. Katritzky and C. W. Rees editors-in-chief, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1984 and the twelve volume set of Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry II, A. R. Katritzky, C. W. Rees and E. F. V. Scriven editors-in-chief, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1996.

The compounds of Formula 1 are mesoionic inner salts. “Inner salts”, also known in the art as “zwitterions”, are electrically neutral molecules but carry formal positive and negative charges on different atoms in each valence bond structure according to valence bond theory. Furthermore the molecular structure of the compounds of Formula 1 can be represented by the six valence bond structures shown below, each placing the formal positive and negative charges on different atoms. Because of this resonance, the compounds of Formula 1 are also described as “mesoionic”. Although for sake of simplicity, the molecular structure of Formula 1 is depicted as a single valence bond structure herein, this particular valence bond structure is to be understood as representative of all six valence bond structures relevant to bonding in molecules of compounds of Formula 1. Therefore reference to Formula 1 herein relates to all six applicable valence bond structures and other (e.g., molecular orbital theory) structures unless otherwise specified.

Compounds of this invention can exist as one or more stereoisomers. The various stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, atropisomers and geometric isomers. One skilled in the art will appreciate that one stereoisomer may be more active and/or may exhibit beneficial effects when enriched relative to the other stereoisomer(s) or when separated from the other stereoisomer(s). Additionally, the skilled artisan knows how to separate, enrich, and/or to selectively prepare said stereoisomers. The compounds of the invention may be present as a mixture of stereoisomers, individual stereoisomers or as an optically active form.

Compounds of this invention can exist as one or more conformational isomers due to restricted bond rotation caused by steric hinderance. For example, a compound of Formula 1 wherein Z is a direct bond and R¹ is phenyl substituted in the ortho-position with a sterically demanding alkyl group (e.g., isopropyl) may exist as two rotamers due to restricted rotation about the R¹-pyrimidinium ring bond. This invention comprises mixtures of conformational isomers. In addition, this invention includes compounds that are enriched in one conformer relative to others.

Compounds selected from Formula 1 (including all stereoisomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof) typically exist in more than one form, and Formula 1 thus includes all crystalline and non-crystalline forms of the compounds that Formula 1 represents. Non-crystalline forms include embodiments which are solids such as waxes and gums as well as embodiments which are liquids such as solutions and melts. Crystalline forms include embodiments which represent essentially a single crystal type and embodiments which represent a mixture of polymorphs (i.e. different crystalline types). The term “polymorph” refers to a particular crystalline form of a chemical compound that can crystallize in different crystalline forms, these forms having different arrangements and/or conformations of the molecules in the crystal lattice. Although polymorphs can have the same chemical composition, they can also differ in composition due to the presence or absence of co-crystallized water or other molecules, which can be weakly or strongly bound in the lattice. Polymorphs can differ in such chemical, physical and biological properties as crystal shape, density, hardness, color, chemical stability, melting point, hygroscopicity, suspensibility, dissolution rate and biological availability. One skilled in the art will appreciate that a polymorph of a compound represented by Formula 1 can exhibit beneficial effects (e.g., suitability for preparation of useful formulations, improved biological performance) relative to another polymorph or a mixture of polymorphs of the same compound represented by Formula 1. Preparation and isolation of a particular polymorph of a compound represented by Formula 1 can be achieved by methods known to those skilled in the art including, for example, crystallization using selected solvents and temperatures.

One skilled in the art will appreciate that not all nitrogen-containing heterocycles can form N-oxides since the nitrogen requires an available lone pair for oxidation to the oxide; one skilled in the art will recognize those nitrogen-containing heterocycles which can form N-oxides. One skilled in the art will also recognize that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for the preparation of N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are very well known by one skilled in the art including the oxidation of heterocycles and tertiary amines with peroxy acids such as peracetic and 3-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA), hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides such as t-butyl hydroperoxide, sodium perborate, and dioxiranes such as dimethyldioxirane. These methods for the preparation of N-oxides have been extensively described and reviewed in the literature, see for example: T. L. Gilchrist in Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, vol. 7, pp 748-750, S. V. Ley, Ed., Pergamon Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 3, pp 18-20, A. J. Boulton and A. McKillop, Eds., Pergamon Press; M. R. Grimmett and B. R. T. Keene in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 43, pp 149-161, A. R. Katritzky, Ed., Academic Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 9, pp 285-291, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press; and G. W. H. Cheeseman and E. S. G. Werstiuk in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 22, pp 390-392, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press.

One skilled in the art recognizes that because in the environment and under physiological conditions salts of chemical compounds are in equilibrium with their corresponding nonsalt forms, salts share the biological utility of the nonsalt forms. Thus a wide variety of salts of the compounds of Formula 1 are useful for control of invertebrate pests and animal parasites (i.e. are suitable for animal health use). The salts of the compounds of Formula 1 include acid-addition salts with inorganic or organic acids such as hydrobromic, hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, acetic, butyric, fumaric, lactic, maleic, malonic, oxalic, propionic, salicylic, tartaric, 4-toluenesulfonic or valeric acids. When a compound of Formula 1 contains an acidic moiety such as a carboxylic acid or phenol, salts also include those formed with organic or inorganic bases such as pyridine, triethylamine or ammonia, or amides, hydrides, hydroxides or carbonates of sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, magnesium or barium. Accordingly, the present invention comprises compounds selected from Formula 1, N-oxides, and salts thereof.

Embodiments of the present invention as described in the Summary of the Invention include those described below. In the following Embodiments Formula 1 includes stereoisomers, N-oxides, and salts thereof, and reference to “a compound of Formula 1” includes the definitions of substituents specified in the Summary of the Invention unless further defined in the Embodiments.

In the Embodiments that follow, recitation of the word “independently” before more than one variable being defined means that the definition can be applied to each variable independently of the other variables. For example, an Embodiment reciting “independently R^(3a), R^(3b) when taken alone, and R^(3c) when taken alone are H or halogen” is equivalent to three Embodiments reciting: “R^(3a) is H or halogen”, “R^(3b) when taken alone is H or halogen”, and “R^(3c) when taken alone is H or halogen”, each of which can be independently used as basis to amend or add claims.

One or more of the following methods and variations as described in Schemes 1-13 can be used to prepare the compounds of Formula 1. The definitions of R¹, R², R^(3a), R^(3b), R⁴, R⁵, X, Y, Z and A in the compounds of Formulae 1-13 below are as defined above in the Summary of the Invention unless otherwise noted. Formulae 1a-1e are various subsets of Formula 1, and all substituents for Formulae 1a-1e are as defined above for Formula 1 unless otherwise indicated. Ambient or room temperature is defined as about 20-25° C.

Compounds of Formula 1a (i.e. Formula 1 wherein X and Y are O) can be prepared by condensation of appropriately substituted compounds of Formula 2 with optionally substituted malonic acids (3a) in the presence of condensing agents as shown in Scheme 1. Condensing agents can be carbodiimides such as dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (see, for example, Koch, A. et al. Tetrahedron 2004, 60, 10011-10018) or other agents well known in the art to form amide bonds with or without activating agents such as N-hydroxybenzotriazole as described in Science of Synthesis 2005, 21, 17-25 and Tetrahedron 2005, 61, 10827-10852. This reaction is typically carried out in an inert organic solvent, such as dichloromethane or 1,2-dichloroethane, at temperatures from about 0 to about 80° C. for a period of 10 min to several days.

Compounds of Formula 1a can also be prepared by the condensation of compounds of Formula 2 with malonic acid esters (3b) wherein R is a C₁-C₅ alkyl group as shown in Scheme 2. These reactions can be performed neat or in the presence of inert solvents as described in Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan 1999, 72(3), 503-509. Inert solvents include, but are not limited to, high boiling hydrocarbons such as mesitylene, tetralin or cymene, or high boiling ethers such as diphenyl ether. Typical temperatures range from 50 to 250° C. Of note are temperatures from 150 to 200° C., which typically provide rapid reaction times and high yields. These reactions can also be performed in microwave reactors within the same temperature ranges. Typical reaction times range from 5 minutes to several hours.

Compounds of Formula 3a can be prepared by a variety of methods known in the art, for example by base hydrolysis of compounds of Formula 3b.

Compounds of Formula 3b wherein Z is a direct bond and R¹ is an optionally substituted aromatic (including heteroaromatic) ring or ring system can be prepared by arylation of malonate esters (using compounds of formula R¹X¹ wherein X¹ is Cl, Br or I, examples of which are found in Tables I-24a-24c) catalyzed by palladium (J. Org. Chem. 2002, 67, 541-555) or copper (Org. Lett. 2002, 4, 269-272 and Org. Lett. 2005, 7, 4693-4695). Alternatively, compounds of Formula 3b can be prepared by the method shown in Scheme 2a (see, for example, J. Med. Chem. 1982, 25(6), 745-747).

Esters of Formula 4 can be prepared from the corresponding acids by methods well known in the art. Many of the acids of Formula 4 where R is H are commercially available or readily prepared by methods known in the art (examples are listed in Table I-1).

Compounds of Formula 3b can also be prepared by the method shown in Scheme 2b. Reaction of nitriles of Formula 3g with dialkyl carbonates yields nitrile esters of Formula 3h, and subsequent acidic hydrolysis in the presence of an alcohol provides the compounds of Formula 3b (see, for example, Helvetica Chimica Acta 1991, 74(2), 309-314). Many of the nitriles of Formula 3g are commercially available or readily prepared by methods known in the art.

Compounds of Formula 1a can also be prepared by treatment of compounds of Formula 2 with activated esters of Formula 3c wherein LvO is an activated leaving group as shown in Scheme 3. Examples of Lv preferred for ease of synthesis or reactivity are phenyl, 4-nitrophenyl or halogen-substituted phenyl (e.g., 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl, pentachlorophenyl or pentafluorophenyl) as described in Archiv der Pharmazie (Weinheim, Germany) 1991, 324, 863-866. Other activated esters are well known in the art and include, but are not limited to, N-hydroxysuccinimide esters (see, for example, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 6872-6878). Typical temperatures range from 50 to 200° C. Of note are temperatures from 50 to 150° C., which typically provide rapid reaction times and high yields. These reactions can be performed with or without solvent, such as toluene, and in microwave reactors within the same temperature ranges. Typical reaction times range from 5 minutes to 2 hours.

Compounds of the Formula 3c can be prepared, for example, from compounds of Formula 3a (see, for example, J. Het. Chem. 1980, 17, 337).

Compounds of Formula 1a can also be prepared by condensation of compounds of Formula 2 with compounds of Formula 3d or 3e, or by condensation of compounds of Formula 2 with mixtures of compounds of Formulae 3d and 3e as shown in Scheme 4. These reactions are typically performed in an inert solvent, such as dichloromethane, and optionally in the presence of two or more equivalents of an acid acceptor (see, for example, Zeitschrift für Naturforschung, Teil B: Anorganische Chemie, Organische Chemie 1982, 37B(2), 222-233). Typical acid acceptors include, but are not limited to, triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, pyridine and substituted pyridines, and metal hydroxides, carbonates and bicarbonates.

Compounds of Formula 1b (i.e. Formula 1a wherein Z is a direct bond and R¹ is H) can be prepared by condensation of compounds of Formula 2 with carbon suboxide (3f) (see, for example, J. Org. Chem. 1972, 37(9), 1422-1425) as shown in Scheme 5. The reactions are typically performed in an inert solvent such as ether and can include the use of a catalyst such as AlCl₃.

Compounds of Formula 2 can be prepared in a variety of ways known in the art; see, for example, Patai, S. The Chemistry of Functional Groups: The Chemistry of Amidines and Imidates; Wiley: Chichester, UK, 1975; The Chemistry of Amidines and Imidates; Patai, S.; Rappoport, Z., Eds.; Wiley: Chichester, UK, 1991; Vol. 2; Mega, T. et al. Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan 1988, 61(12), 4315-4321; Ife, R. et al. European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 1989, 24(3), 249-257; Wagaw, S.; Buchwald, S. Journal of Organic Chemistry 1996, 61(21), 7240-7241; Shen, Q. et al. Angewandte Chemie, International Edition 2005, 44(9), 1371-1375; and Okano, K. et al. Organic Letters 2003, 5(26), 4987-4990.

One skilled in the art will recognize that the compounds of Formula 2 can also be used as their acid-addition salts (e.g., hydrochloric salts, acetic acid salts) in the coupling methods of Schemes 1-5.

Compounds of Formula 1a wherein Z is a direct bond and R¹ is C₂-C₈ alkenyl or an optionally substituted aromatic ring or ring system, can be prepared from compounds of Formula 1c (i.e. Formula 1 wherein X and Y are O, Z is a direct bond and R¹ is Cl, Br or I, preferably Br or I) and compounds of Formula 5 wherein R¹ is C₂-C₈ alkenyl or an optionally substituted aromatic ring or ring system, and M with Z—R¹ forms a boronic acid, boronic acid ester or trifluoroborate salt, or M is trialkylstannyl or zinc and Z is a direct bond, as shown in Scheme 6.

In a similar manner, compounds of Formula 1 wherein a substituent (e.g., R¹ or R²) consists of two directly bonded aromatic rings or ring systems (e.g., a phenyl ring bonded to a second phenyl ring, a phenyl ring bonded to a pyridinyl ring, or a pyridinyl ring bonded to a second pyridinyl ring) can be prepared by palladium-catalyzed coupling of the two appropriately substituted aromatic rings or ring systems. These palladium-catalyzed couplings between an aromatic chloride, bromide or iodide and an aromatic boronic acid or ester, or an aromatic tin or zinc reagent, are well known and have been extensively described in the art. For example, see Scheme 6a, wherein a compound of Formula 13a or 13b is coupled with an appropriately substituted phenyl ring to provide the biphenyl compound of Formula 13c. M is as defined above for Scheme 6.

These coupling reactions are typically carried out in the presence of a palladium catalyst and a base optionally under an inert atmosphere. The palladium catalysts used for these coupling reactions typically comprises palladium in a formal oxidation state of either 0 (i.e. Pd(0)) or 2 (i.e. Pd(II)). A wide variety of such palladium-containing compounds and complexes are useful as catalysts for these reactions. Examples of palladium-containing compounds and complexes useful as catalysts in the methods include PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ (bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II)dichloride), Pd(PPh₃)₄ (tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)-palladium(0)), Pd(C₅H₇O₂)₂ (palladium(II) acetylacetonate), Pd₂(dba)₃ (tris(dibenzylidene-acetone)dipalladium(0)), and [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II). These coupling methods are generally conducted in a liquid phase, and therefore the palladium catalyst preferably has good solubility in the liquid phase. Useful solvents include, for example, water, ethers such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane, amides such as N,N-dimethylacetamide, and non-halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene.

The coupling methods can be conducted over a wide range of temperatures, ranging from about 25 to about 200° C. Of note are temperatures from about 60 to about 150° C., which typically provide fast reaction times and high product yields. The general methods and procedures for Stille, Negishi and Suzuki couplings with aryl iodides, bromides or chlorides and an aryl tin, aryl zinc or aryl boronic acid respectively are well known in the literature; see, for example, E. Negishi, Handbook of Organopalladium Chemistry for Organic Synthesis, Wiley-Interscience, 2002, New York, N.Y.

Compounds of Formula 1d (i.e. Formula 1 wherein X and Y are O and Z is a direct bond) wherein R¹ is an optionally substituted aromatic ring or ring system can be prepared from compounds of Formula 1b (i.e. Formula 1a wherein Z is a direct bond and R¹ is H) and compounds of Formula 6 wherein X¹ is Cl, Br or I (preferably Br or I) as shown in Scheme 7.

These reactions are typically carried out in the presence of a copper or palladium catalyst preferably under an inert atmosphere. The copper catalysts used for the present method typically comprise copper in metallic form (e.g., as a powder) or copper in a formal oxidation state of 1 (i.e. Cu(I)). Examples of copper-containing compounds useful as catalysts in the method of Scheme 7 include Cu, Cut, CuBr, CuCl. Examples of palladium-containing compounds useful as catalysts in the method of Scheme 7 include Pd(OAc)₂. Useful solvents for the method of Scheme 7 include, for example, ethers such as 1,4-dioxane, amides such as N,N-dimethylacetamide and dimethyl sulfoxide.

The method of Scheme 7 can be conducted over a wide range of temperatures from 25 to 200° C. Of note are temperatures from 40 to 150° C. The method of Scheme 7 can be conducted in the presence of a ligand. A wide variety of copper-binding compounds are useful as ligands for the present method. Examples of useful ligands include, but are not limited to, 1,10-phenanthroline, N,N-dimethylethylenediamine, L-proline and 2-picolinic acid. The general methods and procedures for copper-catalyzed Ullmann-type coupling reactions are well known in the literature; see, for example, Xie, Ma, et al. Org. Lett. 2005, 7, 4693-4695.

Compounds of Formula 1a wherein Z is S(O)_(n), C(═X¹) or C(═X¹)E can be prepared from compounds of Formula 1b by treatment with compounds of Formula 7, optionally in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst (e.g., FeCl₃), as shown in Scheme 8. Examples of compounds of Formula 7 useful in the method of Scheme 8 include, but are not limited to, sulfenyl and sulfonyl halides, carboxylic acids, acid anhydrides, acid halides, chloroformates, aminocarbonyl halides, isocyanates and isothiocyanates. Typically the reaction is performed in an inert solvent, more typically a polar solvent such as N,N-dimethylacetamide or 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone. The reaction is typically performed at temperatures from 0 to 180° C., more typically at ambient temperature to 150° C. Microwave irradiation can be advantageous in heating the reaction mixture.

Compounds of the Formula 1e (i.e. Formula 1a wherein Z is C(═NOR⁸) or C(═NN(R⁶)₂) can be prepared by reacting compounds of Formula 1a wherein Z is C(═O) with an alkoxyamine or hydrazine salt of Formula 8, where X³ is a counterion such as halide or oxalate, as shown in Scheme 9. The reaction can be run in an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol or propanol at temperatures ranging from 80° C. to the reflux temperature of the solvent in 3 to 24 hours.

Compounds of Formula 1d wherein R¹ is C₂-C₈ alkynyl, can be prepared from compounds of Formula 1c and substituted alkynes of Formula 9 by a Sonogashira coupling reaction as shown in Scheme 10. Sonogashira couplings are well known in the literature. See, for example, K. Sonogashira, Sonogashira Alkyne Synthesis Vol 2, p. 493 in E. Negishi, Handbook of Organopalladium Chemistry for Organic Synthesis, Wiley-Interscience, 2002, New York, N.Y.

Compounds of Formula 1c can be prepared from compounds of Formula 1b by halogenation using, for example, liquid bromine or N-halosuccinimides (10) as shown in Scheme 11. Typically the reaction is performed in an inert solvent, more typically a halogenated solvent such as methylene chloride or 1,2-dichloroethane. The reaction is typically performed at temperatures from 0 to 80° C., more typically at ambient temperature.

Compounds of Formula 1a can also be prepared by alkylation of compounds of Formula 11 using appropriately substituted alkylating agents and bases such as potassium carbonate as shown in Scheme 12 (see, for example, Kappe, T. et al. Monatschefte fur Chemie 1971, 102, 412-424 and Urban, M. G.; Arnold, W. Helvetica Chimica Acta 1970, 53, 905-922). Alkylating agents include, but are not limited to, alkyl chlorides, bromides, iodides and sulfonate esters. A wide variety of bases and solvents can be employed in the method of Scheme 12, and these bases and solvents are well known in the art.

Compounds of Formula 11 can be prepared from compounds of Formula 2a by methods analogous to those shown in Schemes 1 through 5 wherein the compound of Formula 2 is replaced by a compound of Formula 2a. Compounds of Formula 2a are commercially available or can be prepared by general methods well known in the art.

A particularly useful method for the preparation of compounds of Formula 2 is shown in Scheme 13. In the method of Scheme 13, compounds of Formula 2a are protected with suitable protecting groups such as, but not limited to, tert-butoxycarbonyl, acetyl or formyl to form the intermediate of Formula 2b wherein PG is a protecting group. The compound of Formula 2b is then alkylated with an appropriate reagent of Formula 12 (wherein at least one of R⁴ or R⁵ is hydrogen and X is a leaving group such as a halogen) to give an intermediate of Formula 2c. The protecting group is removed to provide a compound of Formula 2. Conditions for the formation and removal of protecting groups on an amine function are known in the literature (see, for example, Greene, T. W.; Wuts, P. G. M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd ed.; Wiley: New York, 1991).

Examples of particularly useful compounds of Formula 2 are shown in Tables I-27 to I-27g and I-29. Some examples of compounds of Formula 2a are shown in Tables I-28 to I-28g.

An alternative method for the preparation of compounds of Formula 2 is by the reductive amination of appropriate carbonyl compounds. This method is shown in Steps B and C of Synthesis Example 1, and Step A of Synthesis Example 5.

Another alternative method for the preparation of compounds of Formula 2 is by the reaction of appropriately substituted amines with halogen-substituted heteroaromatic compounds analogous to the compounds of Formula 2a (i.e. compounds of Formula 2a wherein the amino group is replaced with halogen) in the presence of a copper or palladium catalyst. This method is shown in Step A of Synthesis Example 2.

Compounds of Formula 2 can also be prepared in a variety of ways known in the art; see, for example, Patai, S. The Chemistry of Functional Groups: The Chemistry of Amidines and Imidates; Wiley: Chichester, UK, 1975; The Chemistry of Amidines and Imidates; Patai, S.; Rappoport, Z., Eds.; Wiley: Chichester, UK, 1991; Vol. 2; Mega, T. et al. Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan 1988, 61(12), 4315-4321; Ife, R. et al. European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 1989, 24(3), 249-257; Wagaw, S.; Buchwald, S. Journal of Organic Chemistry 1996, 61(21), 7240-7241; Shen, Q. et al. Angewandte Chemie, International Edition 2005, 44(9), 1371-1375; and Okano, K. et al. Organic Letters 2003, 5(26), 4987-4990.

Compounds of Formula 1a wherein Z is O can be prepared by reaction of appropriately substituted alcohols (e.g., alkyl alcohols or phenols) with compounds of Formula 1c in the presence of a Cu source (the Ullmann reaction; for example, see Hayashi, S.; Nakanishi, W. Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan 2008, 81(12), 1605-1615). This Cu-catalyzed reaction is typically performed at room temperature to 200° C., more typically at 100 to 150° C., and in a solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidinone. Alternatively, this method can be performed in the presence of a Pd source (for example, see Buchwald, S. et al. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, 1-7. This Pd-catalyzed reaction is typically performed at room temperature to 200° C., more typically at 100 to 150° C., and in the presence of a base such as K₃PO₄, and in the presence of a ligand such as 2-di-tert-butylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl (i.e. di-t-BuXphos) in an inert solvent such as toluene.

Compounds of Formula 1a wherein Z is NR⁶ can be prepared by reaction of appropriately substituted amines (e.g., alkyl amines or anilines) with compounds of Formula 1c in the presence of a Cu source (the Ullmann reaction; for example, see Xu, H.; Yin, K.; Huang, W. Chemistry—A European Journal 2007, 13(36), 10281-10293). This Cu-catalyzed reaction is typically performed at room temperature to 200° C., more typically at 100 to 150° C., and in a solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidinone. Alternatively, this method can be performed in the presence of a Pd source (for example, see Uchiyama, M. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126(28), 8755-8759). This Pd-catalyzed reaction is typically performed at room temperature to 200° C., more typically at 100 to 150° C., in an inert solvent such as toluene, and in the presence of a base such as NaO-t-Bu.

Alternatively, malonic acids of Formula 3a can be treated with P₂S₆(CH₃)₂ as described in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1988, 110 (4), 1316-1318. The resulting malonic acid sulfur derivatives can then be used to prepare the compounds of Formula 1 wherein X and/or Y are S by the method of Scheme 1.

It is recognized that some reagents and reaction conditions described above for preparing compounds of Formula 1 may not be compatible with certain functionalities present in the intermediates. In these instances, the incorporation of protection/deprotection sequences or functional group interconversions into the synthesis will aid in obtaining the desired products. The use and choice of the protecting groups will be apparent to one skilled in chemical synthesis (see, for example, Greene, T. W.; Wuts, P. G. M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd ed.; Wiley: New York, 1991). One skilled in the art will recognize that, in some cases, after the introduction of a given reagent as it is depicted in any individual scheme, it may be necessary to perform additional routine synthetic steps not described in detail to complete the synthesis of compounds of Formula 1. One skilled in the art will also recognize that it may be necessary to perform a combination of the steps illustrated in the above schemes in an order other than that implied by the particular sequence presented to prepare the compounds of Formula 1.

One skilled in the art will also recognize that compounds of Formula 1 and the intermediates described herein can be subjected to various electrophilic, nucleophilic, radical, organometallic, oxidation, and reduction reactions to add substituents or modify existing substituents.

Without further elaboration, it is believed that one skilled in the art using the preceding description can utilize the present invention to its fullest extent. The following Synthesis Examples are, therefore, to be construed as merely illustrative, and not limiting of the disclosure in any way whatsoever. Steps in the following Synthesis Examples illustrate a procedure for each step in an overall synthetic transformation, and the starting material for each step may not have necessarily been prepared by a particular preparative run whose procedure is described in other Examples or Steps. Ambient or room temperature is defined as about 20-25° C. Percentages are by weight except for chromatographic solvent mixtures or where otherwise indicated. Parts and percentages for chromatographic solvent mixtures are by volume unless otherwise indicated. MPLC refers to medium pressure liquid chromatography on silica gel. ¹H NMR spectra are reported in ppm downfield from tetramethylsilane; “s” means singlet, “d” means doublet, “dd” means doublet of doublets, “ddd” means doublet of doublet of doublets, “t” means triplet, “m” means multiplet, and “br s” means broad singlet. For mass spectral data, the numerical value reported is the molecular weight of the parent molecular ion (M) formed by addition of H⁺ (molecular weight of 1) to the molecule to give a M+1 peak observed by mass spectrometry using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (AP⁺).

Synthesis Example 1 Preparation of 1-[(2-chloro-5-thiazolyl)methyl]-2-hydroxy-4-oxo-9-phenyl-3-[3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidinium Inner Salt (Compound Number 68) Step A: Preparation of 2-amino-3-phenylpyridine

A microwave vial was charged with 2-amino-3-bromopyridine (0.5 g, 2.9 mmol), phenylboronic acid (0.52 g, 4.3 mmol), sodium bicarbonate (0.31 g, 2.9 mmol), dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) (0.1 g, 0.14 mmol), dioxane (5 mL) and water (1 mL). The vial was capped, and the reaction mixture was heated at 150° C. for 10 min. The reaction mixture was then cooled, quenched with water (10 mL), and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were dried (MgSO₄) and concentrated to leave a black oil. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel using 10-40% ethyl acetate/hexanes as eluant to provide the title compound as a white solid (0.35 g).

¹H NMR (CDCl₃) δ 8.10 (d, 1H), 7.46 (m, 4H), 7.38 (m, 2H), 6.75 (m, 1H), 4.50-4.55 (br s, 2H).

Step B: Preparation of N-[(2-chloro-5-thiazolyl)methylene]-3-phenyl-2-pyridinamine

2-Amino-3-phenylpyridine (i.e. the product of Step A, 0.342 g, 2.01 mmol) was added to 2-chloro-1,3-thiazole-5-carbaldehyde (0.296 g, 2.01 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) at room temperature. The suspension was stirred for 10 min and then concentrated to dryness under vacuum. The resulting residue was heated to 90° C. for 20 min on a rotory evaporator with a non-returning bump trap to facilitate water removal. The residual yellow solid was again dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL) and heated to 90° C. on a rotory evaporator for an additional 20 min. At this time the yellow solid was checked by NMR to verify reaction completion. The title compound was obtained as a yellow solid and used in the next step without further purification.

Step C: Preparation of N-[(2-chloro-5-thiazolyl)methyl]-3-phenyl-2-pyridinamine

N-[(2-chloro-5-thiazolyl)methylene]-3-phenyl-2-pyridinamine (i.e. the product of Step B) was added portionwise to a stiffed excess of sodium borohydride (0.379 g, 100 mmol) in methanol (8 mL). After addition was complete, the reaction mixture was allowed to stir for 5 min at ambient temperature. The excess reducing agent was quenched by adding glacial acetic acid until gas evolution ceased. Water (20 mL) was added, and the reaction mixture was concentrated to remove methanol. The resulting aqueous phase was extracted twice with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic phases were dried (MgSO₄) and concentrated to give the title compound as a yellow solid (0.659 g).

¹H NMR (CDCl₃) δ 8.2 (d, 1H), 7.5-7.3 (m, 7H), 6.8-6.7 (m, 1H), 5.0-4.9 (br s, 1H), 4.68 (d, 2H).

A mixture of 2-amino-3-methylpyridine (2.16 g, 20 mmol) and 2-chloro-5-(chloromethyl)thiazole (1.68 g, 10 mmol) in N-methylpyrrolidinone (10 mL) was heated at 180° C. in a microwave reactor for 10 min. The cooled reaction mixture was poured into a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, dried over Na₂SO₄, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel eluted with 10% ethyl acetate in hexanes to provide the title compound as an oil (2.0 g).

A compound of this invention will generally be used as an invertebrate pest control active ingredient in a composition, i.e. formulation, with at least one additional component selected from the group consisting of surfactants, solid diluents and liquid diluents, which serves as a carrier. The formulation or composition ingredients are selected to be consistent with the physical properties of the active ingredient, mode of application and environmental factors such as soil type, moisture and temperature.

Useful formulations include both liquid and solid compositions. Liquid compositions include solutions (including emulsifiable concentrates), suspensions, emulsions (including microemulsions and/or suspoemulsions) and the like, which optionally can be thickened into gels. The general types of aqueous liquid compositions are soluble concentrate, suspension concentrate, capsule suspension, concentrated emulsion, microemulsion and suspoemulsion. The general types of nonaqueous liquid compositions are emulsifiable concentrate, microemulsifiable concentrate, dispersible concentrate and oil dispersion.

The general types of solid compositions are dusts, powders, granules, pellets, prills, pastilles, tablets, filled films (including seed coatings) and the like, which can be water-dispersible (“wettable”) or water-soluble. Films and coatings formed from film-forming solutions or flowable suspensions are particularly useful for seed treatment. Active ingredient can be (micro)encapsulated and further formed into a suspension or solid formulation; alternatively the entire formulation of active ingredient can be encapsulated (or “overcoated”). Encapsulation can control or delay release of the active ingredient. An emulsifiable granule combines the advantages of both an emulsifiable concentrate formulation and a dry granular formulation. High-strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation.

Sprayable formulations are typically extended in a suitable medium before spraying. Such liquid and solid formulations are formulated to be readily diluted in the spray medium, usually water. Spray volumes can range from about one to several thousand liters per hectare, but more typically are in the range from about ten to several hundred liters per hectare. Sprayable formulations can be tank mixed with water or another suitable medium for foliar treatment by aerial or ground application, or for application to the growing medium of the plant. Liquid and dry formulations can be metered directly into drip irrigation systems or metered into the furrow during planting. Liquid and solid formulations can be applied onto seeds of crops and other desirable vegetation as seed treatments before planting to protect developing roots and other subterranean plant parts and/or foliage through systemic uptake.

The formulations will typically contain effective amounts of active ingredient, diluent and surfactant within the following approximate ranges which add up to 100 percent by weight.

Solid diluents include, for example, clays such as bentonite, montmorillonite, attapulgite and kaolin, gypsum, cellulose, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, starch, dextrin, sugars (e.g., lactose, sucrose), silica, talc, mica, diatomaceous earth, urea, calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate and bicarbonate, and sodium sulfate. Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins et al., Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers, 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, N.J.

Liquid diluents include, for example, water, N,N-dimethylalkanamides (e.g., N,N-dimethylformamide), limonene, dimethyl sulfoxide, N-alkylpyrrolidones (e.g., N-methylpyrrolidinone), ethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, propylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, paraffins (e.g., white mineral oils, normal paraffins, isoparaffins), alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, glycerine, glycerol triacetate, sorbitol, triacetin, aromatic hydrocarbons, dearomatized aliphatics, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, ketones such as cyclohexanone, 2-heptanone, isophorone and 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone, acetates such as isoamyl acetate, hexyl acetate, heptyl acetate, octyl acetate, nonyl acetate, tridecyl acetate and isobornyl acetate, other esters such as alkylated lactate esters, dibasic esters and γ-butyrolactone, and alcohols, which can be linear, branched, saturated or unsaturated, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropyl alcohol, n-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, n-hexanol, 2-ethylhexanol, n-octanol, decanol, isodecyl alcohol, isooctadecanol, cetyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, tridecyl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, diacetone alcohol and benzyl alcohol. Liquid diluents also include glycerol esters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (typically C₆-C₂₂), such as plant seed and fruit oils (e.g, oils of olive, castor, linseed, sesame, corn (maize), peanut, sunflower, grapeseed, safflower, cottonseed, soybean, rapeseed, coconut and palm kernel), animal-sourced fats (e.g., beef tallow, pork tallow, lard, cod liver oil, fish oil), and mixtures thereof. Liquid diluents also include alkylated fatty acids (e.g., methylated, ethylated, butylated) wherein the fatty acids can be obtained by hydrolysis of glycerol esters from plant and animal sources, and can be purified by distillation. Typical liquid diluents are described in Marsden, Solvents Guide, 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950.

The solid and liquid compositions of the present invention often include one or more surfactants. When added to a liquid, surfactants (also known as “surface-active agents”) generally modify, most often reduce, the surface tension of the liquid. Depending on the nature of the hydrophilic and lipophilic groups in a surfactant molecule, surfactants can be useful as wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers or defoaming agents.

Surfactants can be classified as nonionic, anionic or cationic. Nonionic surfactants useful for the present compositions include, but are not limited to: alcohol alkoxylates such as alcohol alkoxylates based on natural and synthetic alcohols (which are branched or linear) and prepared from the alcohols and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof; amine ethoxylates, alkanolamides and ethoxylated alkanolamides; alkoxylated triglycerides such as ethoxylated soybean, castor and rapeseed oils; alkylphenol alkoxylates such as octylphenol ethoxylates, nonylphenol ethoxylates, dinonyl phenol ethoxylates and dodecyl phenol ethoxylates (prepared from the phenols and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); block polymers prepared from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide and reverse block polymers where the terminal blocks are prepared from propylene oxide; ethoxylated fatty acids; ethoxylated fatty esters and oils; ethoxylated methyl esters; ethoxylated tristyrylphenol (including those prepared from ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); fatty acid esters, glycerol esters, lanolin-based derivatives, polyethoxylate esters such as polyethoxylated sorbitan fatty acid esters, polyethoxylated sorbitol fatty acid esters and polyethoxylated glycerol fatty acid esters; other sorbitan derivatives such as sorbitan esters; polymeric surfactants such as random copolymers, block copolymers, alkyd peg (polyethylene glycol) resins, graft or comb polymers and star polymers; polyethylene glycols (pegs); polyethylene glycol fatty acid esters; silicone-based surfactants; and sugar-derivatives such as sucrose esters, alkyl polyglycosides and alkyl polysaccharides.

Useful anionic surfactants include, but are not limited to: alkylaryl sulfonic acids and their salts; carboxylated alcohol or alkylphenol ethoxylates; diphenyl sulfonate derivatives; lignin and lignin derivatives such as lignosulfonates; maleic or succinic acids or their anhydrides; olefin sulfonates; phosphate esters such as phosphate esters of alcohol alkoxylates, phosphate esters of alkylphenol alkoxylates and phosphate esters of styryl phenol ethoxylates; protein-based surfactants; sarcosine derivatives; styryl phenol ether sulfate; sulfates and sulfonates of oils and fatty acids; sulfates and sulfonates of ethoxylated alkylphenols; sulfates of alcohols; sulfates of ethoxylated alcohols; sulfonates of amines and amides such as N,N-alkyltaurates; sulfonates of benzene, cumene, toluene, xylene, and dodecyl and tridecylbenzenes; sulfonates of condensed naphthalenes; sulfonates of naphthalene and alkyl naphthalene; sulfonates of fractionated petroleum; sulfosuccinamates; and sulfosuccinates and their derivatives such as dialkyl sulfosuccinate salts.

Useful cationic surfactants include, but are not limited to: amides and ethoxylated amides; amines such as N-alkyl propanediamines, tripropylenetriamines and dipropylenetetramines, and ethoxylated amines, ethoxylated diamines and propoxylated amines (prepared from the amines and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or mixtures thereof); amine salts such as amine acetates and diamine salts; quaternary ammonium salts such as quaternary salts, ethoxylated quaternary salts and diquaternary salts; and amine oxides such as alkyldimethylamine oxides and bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-alkylamine oxides.

Also useful for the present compositions are mixtures of nonionic and anionic surfactants or mixtures of nonionic and cationic surfactants. Nonionic, anionic and cationic surfactants and their recommended uses are disclosed in a variety of published references including McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents, annual American and International Editions published by McCutcheon's Division, The Manufacturing Confectioner Publishing Co.; Sisely and Wood, Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents, Chemical Publ. Co., Inc., New York, 1964; and A. S. Davidson and B. Milwidsky, Synthetic Detergents, Seventh Edition, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1987.

Compositions of this invention can also contain formulation auxiliaries and additives, known to those skilled in the art as formulation aids (some of which can be considered to also function as solid diluents, liquid diluents or surfactants). Such formulation auxiliaries and additives can control: pH (buffers), foaming during processing (antifoams such polyorganosiloxanes), sedimentation of active ingredients (suspending agents), viscosity (thixotropic thickeners), in-container microbial growth (antimicrobials), product freezing (antifreezes), color (dyes/pigment dispersions), wash-off (film formers or stickers), evaporation (evaporation retardants), and other formulation attributes. Film formers include, for example, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinyl acetate copolymers, polyvinylpyrrolidone-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl alcohol copolymers and waxes. Examples of formulation auxiliaries and additives include those listed in McCutcheon's Volume 2: Functional Materials, annual International and North American editions published by McCutcheon's Division, The Manufacturing Confectioner Publishing Co.; and PCT Publication WO 03/024222.

The compound of Formula 1 and any other active ingredients are typically incorporated into the present compositions by dissolving the active ingredient in a solvent or by grinding in a liquid or dry diluent. Solutions, including emulsifiable concentrates, can be prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. If the solvent of a liquid composition intended for use as an emulsifiable concentrate is water-immiscible, an emulsifier is typically added to emulsify the active-containing solvent upon dilution with water. Active ingredient slurries, with particle diameters of up to 2,000 μm can be wet milled using media mills to obtain particles with average diameters below 3 μm. Aqueous slurries can be made into finished suspension concentrates (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,060,084) or further processed by spray drying to form water-dispersible granules. Dry formulations usually require dry milling processes, which produce average particle diameters in the 2 to 10 μm range. Dusts and powders can be prepared by blending and usually grinding (such as with a hammer mill or fluid-energy mill). Granules and pellets can be prepared by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See Browning, “Agglomeration”, Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp 147-48, Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook, 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1963, pages 8-57 and following, and WO 91/13546. Pellets can be prepared as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,172,714. Water-dispersible and water-soluble granules can be prepared as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,144,050, U.S. Pat. No. 3,920,442 and DE 3,246,493. Tablets can be prepared as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 5,180,587, U.S. Pat. No. 5,232,701 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,208,030. Films can be prepared as taught in GB 2,095,558 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,299,566.

Compounds of this invention exhibit activity against a wide spectrum of invertebrate pests. These pests include invertebrates inhabiting a variety of environments such as, for example, plant foliage, roots, soil, harvested crops or other foodstuffs, building structures or animal integuments. These pests include, for example, invertebrates feeding on foliage (including leaves, stems, flowers and fruits), seeds, wood, textile fibers or animal blood or tissues, and thereby causing injury or damage to, for example, growing or stored agronomic crops, forests, greenhouse crops, ornamentals, nursery crops, stored foodstuffs or fiber products, or houses or other structures or their contents, or being harmful to animal health or public health. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that not all compounds are equally effective against all growth stages of all pests.

These present compounds and compositions are thus useful agronomically for protecting field crops from phytophagous invertebrate pests, and also nonagronomically for protecting other horticultural crops and plants from phytophagous invertebrate pests. This utility includes protecting crops and other plants (i.e. both agronomic and nonagronomic) that contain genetic material introduced by genetic engineering (i.e. transgenic) or modified by mutagenesis to provide advantageous traits. Examples of such traits include tolerance to herbicides, resistance to phytophagous pests (e.g., insects, mites, aphids, spiders, nematodes, snails, plant-pathogenic fungi, bacteria and viruses), improved plant growth, increased tolerance of adverse growing conditions such as high or low temperatures, low or high soil moisture, and high salinity, increased flowering or fruiting, greater harvest yields, more rapid maturation, higher quality and/or nutritional value of the harvested product, or improved storage or process properties of the harvested products. Transgenic plants can be modified to express multiple traits. Examples of plants containing traits provided by genetic engineering or mutagenesis include varieties of corn, cotton, soybean and potato expressing an insecticidal Bacillus thuringiensis toxin such as YIELD GARD®, KNOCKOUT®, STARLINK®, BOLLGARD®, NuCOTN® and NEWLEAF®, and herbicide-tolerant varieties of corn, cotton, soybean and rapeseed such as ROUNDUP READY®, LIBERTY LINK®, IMI®, STS® and CLEARFIELD®, as well as crops expressing N-acetyltransferase (GAT) to provide resistance to glyphosate herbicide, or crops containing the HRA gene providing resistance to herbicides inhibiting acetolactate synthase (ALS). The present compounds and compositions may interact synergistically with traits introduced by genetic engineering or modified by mutagenesis, thus enhancing phenotypic expression or effectiveness of the traits or increasing the invertebrate pest control effectiveness of the present compounds and compositions. In particular, the present compounds and compositions may interact synergistically with the phenotypic expression of proteins or other natural products toxic to invertebrate pests to provide greater-than-additive control of these pests.

Compositions of this invention can also optionally comprise plant nutrients, e.g., a fertilizer composition comprising at least one plant nutrient selected from nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, boron, manganese, zinc, and molybdenum. Of note are compositions comprising at least one fertilizer composition comprising at least one plant nutrient selected from nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, calcium and magnesium. Compositions of the present invention which further comprise at least one plant nutrient can be in the form of liquids or solids. Of note are solid formulations in the form of granules, small sticks or tablets. Solid formulations comprising a fertilizer composition can be prepared by mixing the compound or composition of the present invention with the fertilizer composition together with formulating ingredients and then preparing the formulation by methods such as granulation or extrusion. Alternatively solid formulations can be prepared by spraying a solution or suspension of a compound or composition of the present invention in a volatile solvent onto a previous prepared fertilizer composition in the form of dimensionally stable mixtures, e.g., granules, small sticks or tablets, and then evaporating the solvent.

Examples of agronomic or nonagronomic invertebrate pests include eggs, larvae and adults of the order Lepidoptera, such as armyworms, cutworms, loopers, and heliothines in the family Noctuidae (e.g., pink stem borer (Sesamia inferens Walker), corn stalk borer (Sesamia nonagrioides Lefebvre), southern armyworm (Spodoptera eridania Cramer), fall armyworm (Spodoptera fugiperda J. E.

In certain instances, combinations of a compound of this invention with other biologically active (particularly invertebrate pest control) compounds or agents (i.e. active ingredients) can result in a greater-than-additive (i.e. synergistic) effect. Reducing the quantity of active ingredients released in the environment while ensuring effective pest control is always desirable. When synergism of invertebrate pest control active ingredients occurs at application rates giving agronomically satisfactory levels of invertebrate pest control, such combinations can be advantageous for reducing crop production cost and decreasing environmental load.

Compounds of this invention and compositions thereof can be applied to plants genetically transformed to express proteins toxic to invertebrate pests (such as Bacillus thuringiensis delta-endotoxins). Such an application may provide a broader spectrum of plant protection and be advantageous for resistance management. The effect of the exogenously applied invertebrate pest control compounds of this invention may be synergistic with the expressed toxin proteins.

For embodiments where one or more of these various mixing partners are used, the weight ratio of these various mixing partners (in total) to the compound of Formula 1, an N-oxide, or salt thereof, is typically between about 1:3000 and about 3000:1. Of note are weight ratios between about 1:300 and about 300:1 (for example ratios between about 1:30 and about 30:1). One skilled in the art can easily determine through simple experimentation the biologically effective amounts of active ingredients necessary for the desired spectrum of biological activity. It will be evident that including these additional components can expand the spectrum of invertebrate pests controlled beyond the spectrum controlled by the compound of Formula 1 alone.

Table A lists specific combinations of a compound of Formula 1 with other invertebrate pest control agents illustrative of the mixtures, compositions and methods of the present invention. The first column of Table A lists the specific invertebrate pest control agents (e.g., “Abamectin” in the first line). The second column of Table A lists the mode of action (if known) or chemical class of the invertebrate pest control agents. The third column of Table A lists embodiment(s) of ranges of weight ratios for rates at which a compound of Formula 1 can be applied relative to an invertebrate pest control agent (e.g., “50:1 to 1:50” of a compound of Formula 1 relative to abamectin by weight). Thus, for example, the first line of Table A specifically discloses the combination of a compound of Formula 1 with abamectin can be applied in a weight ratio between 50:1 to 1:50. The remaining lines of Table A are to be construed similarly. Of further note Table A lists specific combinations of a compound of Formula 1 with other invertebrate pest control agents illustrative of the mixtures, compositions and methods of the present invention and includes additional embodiments of weight ratio ranges for application rates.

Invertebrate pests are controlled in agronomic and nonagronomic applications by applying one or more compounds of this invention, typically in the form of a composition, in a biologically effective amount, to the environment of the pests, including the agronomic and/or nonagronomic locus of infestation, to the area to be protected, or directly on the pests to be controlled.

Thus the present invention comprises a method for controlling an invertebrate pest in agronomic and/or nonagronomic applications, comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of one or more of the compounds of the invention, or with a composition comprising at least one such compound or a composition comprising at least one such compound and a biologically effective amount of at least one additional biologically active compound or agent. Examples of suitable compositions comprising a compound of the invention and a biologically effective amount of at least one additional biologically active compound or agent include granular compositions wherein the additional active compound is present on the same granule as the compound of the invention or on granules separate from those of the compound of the invention.

Embodiments of the method of this invention include contacting the environment. Of note is the method wherein the environment is a plant. Also of note is the method wherein the environment is an animal. Also of note is the method wherein the environment is a seed.

To achieve contact with a compound or composition of the invention to protect a field crop from invertebrate pests, the compound or composition is typically applied to the seed of the crop before planting, to the foliage (e.g., leaves, stems, flowers, fruits) of crop plants, or to the soil or other growth medium before or after the crop is planted.

One embodiment of a method of contact is by spraying. Alternatively, a granular composition comprising a compound of the invention can be applied to the plant foliage or the soil. Compounds of this invention can also be effectively delivered through plant uptake by contacting the plant with a composition comprising a compound of this invention applied as a soil drench of a liquid formulation, a granular formulation to the soil, a nursery box treatment or a dip of transplants. Of note is a composition of the present invention in the form of a soil drench liquid formulation. Also of note is a method for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound of the present invention or with a composition comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound of the present invention. Of further note is this method wherein the environment is soil and the composition is applied to the soil as a soil drench formulation. Of further note is that compounds of this invention are also effective by localized application to the locus of infestation. Other methods of contact include application of a compound or a composition of the invention by direct and residual sprays, aerial sprays, gels, seed coatings, microencapsulations, systemic uptake, baits, ear tags, boluses, foggers, fumigants, aerosols, dusts and many others. One embodiment of a method of contact is a dimensionally stable fertilizer granule, stick or tablet comprising a compound or composition of the invention. The compounds of this invention can also be impregnated into materials for fabricating invertebrate control devices (e.g., insect netting).

Compounds of this invention are also useful in seed treatments for protecting seeds from invertebrate pests. In the context of the present disclosure and claims, treating a seed means contacting the seed with a biologically effective amount of a compound of this invention, which is typically formulated as a composition of the invention. This seed treatment protects the seed from invertebrate soil pests and generally can also protect roots and other plant parts in contact with the soil of the seedling developing from the germinating seed. The seed treatment may also provide protection of foliage by translocation of the compound of this invention or a second active ingredient within the developing plant. Seed treatments can be applied to all types of seeds, including those from which plants genetically transformed to express specialized traits will germinate. Representative examples include those expressing proteins toxic to invertebrate pests, such as Bacillus thuringiensis toxin or those expressing herbicide resistance such as glyphosate acetyltransferase, which provides resistance to glyphosate.

One method of seed treatment is by spraying or dusting the seed with a compound of the invention (i.e. as a formulated composition) before sowing the seeds. Compositions formulated for seed treatment generally comprise a film former or adhesive agent. Therefore typically a seed coating composition of the present invention comprises a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula 1, an N-oxide, or salt thereof, and a film former or adhesive agent. Seed can be coated by spraying a flowable suspension concentrate directly into a tumbling bed of seeds and then drying the seeds. Alternatively, other formulation types such as wetted powders, solutions, suspoemulsions, emulsifiable concentrates and emulsions in water can be sprayed on the seed. This process is particularly useful for applying film coatings on seeds. Various coating machines and processes are available to one skilled in the art. Suitable processes include those listed in P. Kosters et al., Seed Treatment Progress and Prospects, 1994 BCPC Mongraph No. 57, and references listed therein.

The treated seed typically comprises a compound of the present invention in an amount from about 0.1 g to 1 kg per 100 kg of seed (i.e. from about 0.0001 to 1% by weight of the seed before treatment). A flowable suspension formulated for seed treatment typically comprises from about 0.5 to about 70% of the active ingredient, from about 0.5 to about 30% of a film-forming adhesive, from about 0.5 to about 20% of a dispersing agent, from 0 to about 5% of a thickener, from 0 to about 5% of a pigment and/or dye, from 0 to about 2% of an antifoaming agent, from 0 to about 1% of a preservative, and from 0 to about 75% of a volatile liquid diluent.

The compounds of this invention can be incorporated into a bait composition that is consumed by an invertebrate pest or used within a device such as a trap, bait station, and the like. Such a bait composition can be in the form of granules which comprise (a) active ingredients, namely a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula 1 an N-oxide, or salt thereof; (b) one or more food materials; optionally (c) an attractant, and optionally (d) one or more humectants. Of note are granules or bait compositions which comprise between about 0.001-5% active ingredients, about 40-99% food material and/or attractant; and optionally about 0.05-10% humectants, which are effective in controlling soil invertebrate pests at very low application rates, particularly at doses of active ingredient that are lethal by ingestion rather than by direct contact. Some food materials can function both as a food source and an attractant. Food materials include carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. Examples of food materials are vegetable flour, sugar, starches, animal fat, vegetable oil, yeast extracts and milk solids. Examples of attractants are odorants and flavorants, such as fruit or plant extracts, perfume, or other animal or plant component, pheromones or other agents known to attract a target invertebrate pest. Examples of humectants, i.e. moisture retaining agents, are glycols and other polyols, glycerine and sorbitol. Of note is a bait composition (and a method utilizing such a bait composition) used to control at least one invertebrate pest selected from the group consisting of ants, termites and cockroaches. A device for controlling an invertebrate pest can comprise the present bait composition and a housing adapted to receive the bait composition, wherein the housing has at least one opening sized to permit the invertebrate pest to pass through the opening so the invertebrate pest can gain access to the bait composition from a location outside the housing, and wherein the housing is further adapted to be placed in or near a locus of potential or known activity for the invertebrate pest.

The compounds of this invention can be applied without other adjuvants, but most often application will be of a formulation comprising one or more active ingredients with suitable carriers, diluents, and surfactants and possibly in combination with a food depending on the contemplated end use. One method of application involves spraying a water dispersion or refined oil solution of a compound of the present invention. Combinations with spray oils, spray oil concentrations, spreader stickers, adjuvants, other solvents, and synergists such as piperonyl butoxide often enhance compound efficacy. For nonagronomic uses such sprays can be applied from spray containers such as a can, a bottle or other container, either by means of a pump or by releasing it from a pressurized container, e.g., a pressurized aerosol spray can. Such spray compositions can take various forms, for example, sprays, mists, foams, fumes or fog. Such spray compositions thus can further comprise propellants, foaming agents, etc. as needed for application. Of note is a spray composition comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound or a composition of the present invention and a carrier. One embodiment of such a spray composition comprises a biologically effective amount of a compound or a composition of the present invention and a propellant. Representative propellants include, but are not limited to, methane, ethane, propane, butane, isobutane, butene, pentane, isopentane, neopentane, pentene, hydrofluorocarbons, chlorofluorocarbons, dimethyl ether, and mixtures of the foregoing. Of note is a spray composition (and a method utilizing such a spray composition dispensed from a spray container) used to control at least one invertebrate pest selected from the group consisting of mosquitoes, black flies, stable flies, deer flies, horse flies, wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, ticks, spiders, ants, gnats, and the like, including individually or in combinations.

Nonagronomic uses refer to invertebrate pest control in the areas other than fields of crop plants. Nonagronomic uses of the present compounds and compositions include control of invertebrate pests in stored grains, beans and other foodstuffs, and in textiles such as clothing and carpets. Nonagronomic uses of the present compounds and compositions also include invertebrate pest control in ornamental plants, forests, in yards, along roadsides and railroad rights of way, and on turf such as lawns, golf courses and pastures. Nonagronomic uses of the present compounds and compositions also include invertebrate pest control in houses and other buildings which may be occupied by humans and/or companion, farm, ranch, zoo or other animals. Nonagronomic uses of the present compounds and compositions also include the control of pests such as termites that can damage wood or other structural materials used in buildings.

Nonagronomic uses of the present compounds and compositions also include protecting human and animal health by controlling invertebrate pests that are parasitic or transmit infectious diseases. The controlling of animal parasites includes controlling external parasites that are parasitic to the surface of the body of the host animal (e.g., shoulders, armpits, abdomen, inner part of the thighs) and internal parasites that are parasitic to the inside of the body of the host animal (e.g., stomach, intestine, lung, veins, under the skin, lymphatic tissue). External parasitic or disease transmitting pests include, for example, chiggers, ticks, lice, mosquitoes, flies, mites and fleas. Internal parasites include heartworms, hookworms and helminths. Compounds and compositions of the present invention are particularly suitable for combating external parasitic or disease transmitting pests. Compounds and compositions of the present invention are suitable for systemic and/or non-systemic control of infestation or infection by parasites on animals.

Compounds and compositions of the present invention are suitable for combating parasites that infest animal subjects including those in the wild, livestock and agricultural working animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, pigs, donkeys, camels, bison, buffalos, rabbits, hens, turkeys, ducks, geese and bees (e.g., raised for meat, milk, butter, eggs, fur, leather, feathers and/or wool). By combating parasites, fatalities and performance reduction (in terms of meat, milk, wool, skins, eggs, honey, etc.) are reduced, so that applying a composition comprising a compound of the present invention allows more economic and simple husbandry of animals.

Compounds and compositions of the present invention are especially suitable for combating parasites that infest companion animals and pets (e.g., dogs, cats, pet birds and aquarium fish), research and experimental animals (e.g., hamsters, guinea pigs, rats and mice), as well as animals raised for/in zoos, wild habitats and/or circuses.

In an embodiment of this invention, the animal is preferably a vertebrate, and more preferably a mammal, avian or fish. In a particular embodiment, the animal subject is a mammal (including great apes, such as humans). Other mammalian subjects include primates (e.g., monkeys), bovine (e.g., cattle or dairy cows), porcine (e.g., hogs or pigs), ovine (e.g., goats or sheep), equine (e.g., horses), canine (e.g., dogs), feline (e.g., house cats), camels, deer, donkeys, bison, buffalos, antelopes, rabbits, and rodents (e.g., guinea pigs, squirrels, rats, mice, gerbils, and hamsters). Avians include Anatidae (swans, ducks and geese), Columbidae (e.g., doves and pigeons), Phasianidae (e.g., partridges, grouse and turkeys), Thesienidae (e.g., domestic chickens), Psittacines (e.g., parakeets, macaws, and parrots), game birds, and ratites (e.g., ostriches).

Birds treated or protected by the inventive compounds can be associated with either commercial or noncommercial aviculture. These include Anatidae, such as swans, geese, and ducks, Columbidae, such as doves and domestic pigeons, Phasianidae, such as partridge, grouse and turkeys, Thesienidae, such as domestic chickens, and Psittacines, such as parakeets, macaws, and parrots raised for the pet or collector market, among others.

For purposes of the present invention, the term “fish” shall be understood to include without limitation, the Teleosti grouping of fish, i.e., teleosts. Both the Salmoniformes order (which includes the Salmonidae family) and the Perciformes order (which includes the Centrarchidae family) are contained within the Teleosti grouping. Examples of potential fish recipients include the Salmonidae, Serranidae, Sparidae, Cichlidae, and Centrarchidae, among others.

Other animals are also contemplated to benefit from the inventive methods, including marsupials (such as kangaroos), reptiles (such as farmed turtles), and other economically important domestic animals for which the inventive methods are safe and effective in treating or preventing parasite infection or infestation.

Examples of invertebrate parasitic pests controlled by administering a parasiticidally effective amount of a compound of this invention to an animal to be protected include ectoparasites (arthropods, acarines, etc) and endoparasites (helminths, e.g., nematodes, trematodes, cestodes, acanthocephalans, etc.).

The disease or group of diseases described generally as helminthiasis is due to infection of an animal host with parasitic worms known as helminths. The term ‘helminths’ is meant to include nematodes, trematodes, cestodes and acanthocephalans. Helminthiasis is a prevalent and serious economic problem with domesticated animals such as swine, sheep, horses, cattle, goats, dogs, cats and poultry.

Among the Helminths, the group of worms described as nematodes causes widespread and at times serious infection in various species of animals. Nematodes that are contemplated to be treated by the compounds of this invention and by the inventive methods include, without limitation, the following genera: Acanthocheilonema, Aelurostrongylus, Ancylostoma, Angiostrongylus, Ascaridia, Ascaris, Brugia, Bunostomum, Capillaria, Chabertia, Cooperia, Crenosoma, Dictyocaulus, Dioctophyme, Dipetalonema, Diphyllobothrium, Dirofilaria, Dracunculus, Enterobius, Filaroides, Haemonchus, Heterakis, Lagochilascaris, Loa, Mansonella, Muellerius, Necator, Nematodirus, Oesophagostomum, Ostertagia, Oxyuris, Parafilaria, Parascaris, Physaloptera, Protostrongylus, Setaria, Spirocerca, Stephanofilaria, Strongyloides, Strongylus, Thelazia, Toxascaris, Toxocara, Trichinella, Trichonema, Trichostrongylus, Trichuris, Uncinaria and Wuchereria.

Certain of these, such as Nematodirus, Cooperia and Oesophagostomum attack primarily the intestinal tract while others, such as Haemonchus and Ostertagia, are more prevalent in the stomach while others such as Dictyocaulus are found in the lungs. Still other parasites may be located in other tissues such as the heart and blood vessels, subcutaneous and lymphatic tissue and the like.

Trematodes that are contemplated to be treated by the compounds of this invention and by the inventive methods include, without limitation, the following genera: Alaria, Fasciola, Nanophyetus, Opisthorchis, Paragonimus and Schistosoma.

Cestodes that are contemplated to be treated by the compounds of this invention and by the inventive methods include, without limitation, the following genera: Diphyllobothrium, Diplydium, Spirometra and Taenia.

The most common genera of parasites of the gastrointestinal tract of humans are Ancylostoma, Necator, Ascaris, Strongyloides, Trichinella, Capillaria, Trichuris and Enterobius. Other medically important genera of parasites which are found in the blood or other tissues and organs outside the gastrointestinal tract are the filarial worms such as Wuchereria, Brugia, Onchocerca and Loa, as well as Dracunculus and extra intestinal stages of the intestinal worms Strongyloides and Trichinella.

True bugs include, e.g., Cimicidae or e.g., the common bed bug (Cimex lectularius); Triatominae spp. including triatomid bugs also known as kissing bugs; for example Rhodnius prolixus and Triatoma spp.

Generally, flies, fleas, lice, mosquitoes, gnats, mites, ticks and helminths cause tremendous losses to the livestock and companion animal sectors. Arthropod parasites also are a nuisance to humans and can vector disease-causing organisms in humans and animals.

Numerous other arthropod pests and ectoparasites are known to the art, and are also contemplated to be treated by the compounds of the invention. These are enumerated in great detail in Medical and Veterinary Entomology, D. S. Kettle, John Wiley & Sons, New York and Toronto; Control of Arthropod Pests of Livestock: A Review of Technology, R. O. Drummand, J. E. George, and S. E. Kunz, CRC Press, Boca Raton, Fla.

Most preferably, the Emamectin salt used in the present invention is Emamectin benzoate.

Eprinomectin is chemically known as 4″-epi-acetylamino-4″-deoxy-avermectin B₁. Eprinomectin was specifically developed to be used in all cattle classes and age groups. It was the first avermectin to show broad-spectrum activity against both endo- and ecto-parasites while also leaving minimal residues in meat and milk. It has the additional advantage of being highly potent when delivered topically.

Another useful antibiotic includes the fluoroquinolones, such as, for example, enrofloxacin, danofloxacin, difloxacin, orbifloxacin and marbofloxacin. Enrofloxacin is typically administered in a concentration of about 100 mg/mL. Danofloxacin is typically administered at a concentration of about 180 mg/mL.

Other useful macrolide antibiotics include compounds from the class of ketolides, or, more specifically, the azalides. Such compounds are described in, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,514,945, U.S. Pat. No. 6,472,371, U.S. Pat. No. 6,270,768, U.S. Pat. No. 6,437,151, U.S. Pat. No. 6,271,255, U.S. Pat. No. 6,239,112, U.S. Pat. No. 5,958,888, U.S. Pat. No. 6,339,063 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,054,434.

Other useful antibiotics include the tetracyclines, particularly chlortetracycline and oxytetracycline. Other antibiotics may include β-lactams such as penicillins, e.g., penicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, or a combination of amoxicillin with clavulanic acid or other beta lactamase inhibitors.

Nonagronomic applications in the veterinary sector are by conventional means such as by enteral administration in the form of, for example, tablets, capsules, drinks, drenching preparations, granulates, pastes, boli, feed-through procedures, or suppositories; or by parenteral administration, such as by injection (including intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous, intraperitoneal) or implants; by nasal administration; by topical administration, for example, in the form of immersion or dipping, spraying, washing, coating with powder, or application to a small area of the animal, and through articles such as neck collars, ear tags, tail bands, limb bands or halters which comprise compounds or compositions of the present invention.

Any of the compounds of the present invention, or a suitable combination of such compounds, may be administered directly to the animal subject and/or indirectly by applying it to the local environment in which the animal dwells (such as bedding, enclosures, or the like). Direct administration includes contacting the skin, fur or feathers of a subject animal with the compounds, or by feeding or injecting the compounds into the animal.

The compounds of the present invention may be administered in a controlled release form, e.g., in a subcutaneous slow release formulation, or in the form of a controlled release device affixed to an animal such as a fleacollar. Collars for the controlled release of an insecticide agent for long term protection against flea infestation in a companion animal are art-known, and are described, for example, by U.S. Pat. No. 3,852,416, U.S. Pat. No. 4,224,901, U.S. Pat. No. 5,555,848 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,184,573.

Typically a parasiticidal composition according to the present invention comprises a mixture of a compound of Formula 1, an N-oxide, or salt thereof, with one or more pharmaceutically or veterinarily acceptable carriers comprising excipients and auxiliaries selected with regard to the intended route of administration (e.g., oral, topical or parenteral administration such as injection) and in accordance with standard practice. In addition, a suitable carrier is selected on the basis of compatibility with the one or more active ingredients in the composition, including such considerations as stability relative to pH and moisture content. Therefore of note is a composition for protecting an animal from an invertebrate parasitic pest comprising a parasitically effective amount of a compound of the invention and at least one carrier.

For parenteral administration including intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection, a compound of the present invention can be formulated in suspension, solution or emulsion in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain adjuncts such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. The compounds of the present invention may also be formulated for bolus injection or continuous infusion. Pharmaceutical compositions for injection include aqueous solutions of water-soluble forms of active ingredients (e.g., a salt of an active compound), preferably in physiologically compatible buffers containing other excipients or auxiliaries as are known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation. Additionally, suspensions of the active compounds may be prepared in a lipophilic vehicle. Suitable lipophilic vehicles include fatty oils such as sesame oil, synthetic fatty acid esters such as ethyl oleate and triglycerides, or materials such as liposomes. Aqueous injection suspensions may contain substances that increase the viscosity of the suspension, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sorbitol, or dextran. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile, pyrogen-free water, before use.

In addition to the formulations described supra, the compounds of the present invention may also be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example, subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection. The compounds of the present invention may be formulated for this route of administration with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for instance, in an emulsion with a pharmacologically acceptable oil), with ion exchange resins, or as a sparingly soluble derivative such as, without limitation, a sparingly soluble salt.

For administration by inhalation, the compounds of the present invention can be delivered in the form of an aerosol spray using a pressurized pack or a nebulizer and a suitable propellant, e.g., without limitation, dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane or carbon dioxide. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit may be controlled by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. Capsules and cartridges of, for example, gelatin for use in an inhaler or insufflator may be formulated containing a powder mix of the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch.

Compounds of the present invention have been discovered to have favorable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties providing systemic availability from oral administration and ingestion. Therefore after ingestion by the animal to be protected, parasiticidally effective concentrations of compounds of the invention in the bloodstream protect the treated animal from blood-sucking pests such as fleas, ticks and lice. Therefore of note is a composition for protecting an animal from an invertebrate parasite pest in a form for oral administration (i.e. comprising, in addition to a parasiticidally effective amount of a compound of the invention, one or more carriers selected from binders and fillers suitable for oral administration and feed concentrate carriers).

For oral administration in the form of solutions (the most readily available form for absorption), emulsions, suspensions, pastes, gels, capsules, tablets, boluses, powders, granules, rumen-retention and feed/water/lick blocks, a compound of the present invention can be formulated with binders/fillers known in the art to be suitable for oral administration compositions, such as sugars and sugar derivatives (e.g., lactose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol), starch (e.g., maize starch, wheat starch, rice starch, potato starch), cellulose and derivatives (e.g., methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, ethylhydroxycellulose), protein derivatives (e.g., zein, gelatin), and synthetic polymers (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone). If desired, lubricants (e.g., magnesium stearate), disintegrating agents (e.g., cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidinone, agar, alginic acid) and dyes or pigments can be added. Pastes and gels often also contain adhesives (e.g., acacia, alginic acid, bentonite, cellulose, xanthan gum, colloidal magnesium aluminum silicate) to aid in keeping the composition in contact with the oral cavity and not being easily ejected.

If the parasiticidal compositions are in the form of feed concentrates, the carrier is typically selected from high-performance feed, feed cereals or protein concentrates. Such feed concentrate-containing compositions can, in addition to the parasiticidal active ingredients, comprise additives promoting animal health or growth, improving quality of meat from animals for slaughter or otherwise useful to animal husbandry. These additives can include, for example, vitamins, antibiotics, chemotherapeutics, bacteriostats, fungistats, coccidiostats and hormones.

The compounds of Formula 1 may also be formulated in rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, using, e.g., conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.

Formulations for topical administration are typically in the form of a powder, cream, suspension, spray, emulsion, foam, paste, aerosol, ointment, salve or gel. More typically a topical formulation is a water-soluble solution, which can be in the form of a concentrate that is diluted before use. Parasiticidal compositions suitable for topical administration typically comprise a compound of the present invention and one or more topically suitable carriers. In applications of a parasiticidal composition topically to the exterior of an animal as a line or spot (i.e. “spot-on” treatment), the active ingredient migrates over the surface of the animal to cover most or all of its external surface area. As a result, the treated animal is particularly protected from invertebrate pests that feed off the epidermis of the animal such as ticks, fleas and lice. Therefore formulations for topical localized administration often comprise at least one organic solvent to facilitate transport of the active ingredient over the skin and/or penetration into the epidermis of the animal. Carriers in such formulations include propylene glycol, paraffins, aromatics, esters such as isopropyl myristate, glycol ethers, alcohols such as ethanol, n-propanol, 2-octyl dodecanol or oleyl alcohol; solutions in esters of monocarboxylic acids, such as isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, lauric acid oxalic ester, oleic acid oleyl ester, oleic acid decyl ester, hexyl laurate, oleyl oleate, decyl oleate, caproic acid esters of saturated fatty alcohols of chain length C₁₂-C₁₈; solutions of esters of dicarboxylic acids, such as dibutyl phthalate, diisopropyl isophthalate, adipic acid diisopropyl ester, di-n-butyl adipate or solutions of esters of aliphatic acids, e.g., glycols. It may be advantageous for a crystallization inhibitor or a dispersant known from the pharmaceutical or cosmetic industry also to be present.

A pour-on formulation may also be prepared for control of parasites in an animal of agricultural worth. The pour-on formulations of this invention can be in the form of a liquid, powder, emulsion, foam, paste, aerosol, ointment, salve or gel. Typically, the pour-on formulation is liquid. These pour-on formulations can be effectively applied to sheep, cattle, goats, other ruminants, camelids, pigs and horses. The pour-on formulation is typically applied by pouring in one or several lines or in a spot-on the dorsal midline (back) or shoulder of an animal. More typically, the formulation is applied by pouring it along the back of the animal, following the spine. The formulation can also be applied to the animal by other conventional methods, including wiping an impregnated material over at least a small area of the animal, or applying it using a commercially available applicator, by means of a syringe, by spraying or by using a spray race. The pour-on formulations include a carrier and can also include one or more additional ingredients. Examples of suitable additional ingredients are stabilizers such as antioxidants, spreading agents, preservatives, adhesion promoters, active solubilisers such as oleic acid, viscosity modifiers, UV blockers or absorbers, and colourants. Surface active agents, including anionic, cationic, non-ionic and ampholytic surface active agents, can also be included in these formulations.

The formulations of this invention typically include an antioxidant, such as BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene). The antioxidant is generally present in amounts of at 0.1-5% (wt/vol). Some of the formulations require a solubilizer, such as oleic acid, to dissolve the active agent, particularly if spinosad is used. Common spreading agents used in these pour-on formulations are: IPM, IPP, caprylic/capric acid esters of saturated C₁₂-C₁₈ fatty alcohols, oleic acid, oleyl ester, ethyl oleate, triglycerides, silicone oils and DPM. The pour-on formulations of this invention are prepared according to known techniques. Where the pour-on is a solution, the parasiticide/insecticide is mixed with the carrier or vehicle, using heat and stirring where required. Auxiliary or additional ingredients can be added to the mixture of active agent and carrier, or they can be mixed with the active agent prior to the addition of the carrier. If the pour-on is an emulsion or suspension, these formulations are similarly prepared using known techniques.

Other delivery systems for relatively hydrophobic pharmaceutical compounds may be employed. Liposomes and emulsions are well-known examples of delivery vehicles or carriers for hydrophobic drugs. In addition, organic solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide may be used, if needed.

For agronomic applications, the rate of application required for effective control (i.e. “biologically effective amount”) will depend on such factors as the species of invertebrate to be controlled, the pest's life cycle, life stage, its size, location, time of year, host crop or animal, feeding behavior, mating behavior, ambient moisture, temperature, and the like. Under normal circumstances, application rates of about 0.01 to 2 kg of active ingredients per hectare are sufficient to control pests in agronomic ecosystems, but as little as 0.0001 kg/hectare may be sufficient or as much as 8 kg/hectare may be required. For nonagronomic applications, effective use rates will range from about 1.0 to 50 mg/square meter but as little as 0.1 mg/square meter may be sufficient or as much as 150 mg/square meter may be required. One skilled in the art can easily determine the biologically effective amount necessary for the desired level of invertebrate pest control.

In general for veterinary use, a compound of Formula 1, an N-oxide, or salt thereof, is administered in a parasiticidally effective amount to an animal to be protected from invertebrate parasite pests. A parasiticidally effective amount is the amount of active ingredient needed to achieve an observable effect diminishing the occurrence or activity of the target invertebrate parasite pest. One skilled in the art will appreciate that the parasitically effective dose can vary for the various compounds and compositions of the present invention, the desired parasitical effect and duration, the target invertebrate pest species, the animal to be protected, the mode of application and the like, and the amount needed to achieve a particular result can be determined through simple experimentation.

For oral administration to homeothermic animals, the daily dosage of a compound of the present invention typically ranges from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg, more typically from about 0.5 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg, of animal body weight. For topical (e.g., dermal) administration, dips and sprays typically contain from about 0.5 ppm to about 5000 ppm, more typically from about 1 ppm to about 3000 ppm, of a compound of the present invention.

The following Tests demonstrate the control efficacy of compounds of this invention on specific pests. “Control efficacy” represents inhibition of invertebrate pest development (including mortality) that causes significantly reduced feeding. The pest control protection afforded by the compounds is not limited, however, to these species. Compound numbers refer to compounds in Index Tables A-E.

Biological Examples of the Invention Test A

For evaluating control of diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) the test unit consisted of a small open container with a 12-14-day-old radish plant inside. This was pre-infested with ˜50 neonate larvae that were dispensed into the test unit via corn cob grits using a bazooka inoculator. The larvae moved onto the test plant after being dispensed into the test unit.

Test compounds were formulated using a solution containing 10% acetone, 90% water and 300 ppm X-77® Spreader Lo-Foam Formula non-ionic surfactant containing alkylarylpolyoxyethylene, free fatty acids, glycols and isopropanol (Loveland Industries, Inc. Greeley, Colo., USA). The formulated compounds were applied in 1 mL of liquid through a SUJ2 atomizer nozzle with ⅛ JJ custom body (Spraying Systems Co., Wheaton, Ill., USA) positioned 1.27 cm (0.5 inches) above the top of each test unit. Test compounds were sprayed at 50 ppm and/or 10 ppm, and replicated three times.
